It was our extreme pleasure to welcome Jon Montgomery as our keynote speaker at the Smitty’s Canada 60th Anniversary Celebration and Seminar in Waikiki, Hawaii. Jon was easy to work with and really did his homework when it came to relating his experience with our Smitty’s restaurant brand through anecdotes of his life and his rise to Olympic gold. Our entire group was elated by Jon’s engaging and electric address, and we heard nothing but positive remarks about his presentation. Jon went the extra mile by auctioning off a signed ‘Beer Pitcher’ to our group with proceeds going to one of his favourite causes, Kids Sport Victoria. Beyond his presentation, Jon was generous with his time and very professional, not losing his signature Jon energy even after meeting and having photo’s taken with almost every family in the room. A gold-medal ‘Canadian’ performance indeed! Thank you Jon! - President, Smitty's Canada Inc.

I have to say that the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive for Jon! He was energetic, relevant, relatable, funny, and motivating. I've actually never had a paid speaker have such consistent feedback before; well done Jon! A few notable points of feedback from clients include one entrepreneur (in more of the startup phase) told me that his talk was exactly what they needed and gave them the motivation they needed to keep going. A few others talked about how they loved that he tied it back to the overall theme of the conference and gave them the push to just get started. We really appreciate that Jon also took feedback early on to tie back into the conference theme earlier in his talk, which help land the overall conference theme for us and was extremely helpful. It's also not every speaker (in my experience) who is willing to even take feedback, so the fact that he was open to it and even applied it was quite something. Nothing but positive feedback and a huge thank you to Jon for participating in our conferences. - National Meeting & Event Planner, PwC Canada

Jon Montgomery spoke at our annual Partners’ Conference, to an audience of our partners and their companions, and was extremely well received. The group found Jon to be inspiring, personable and entertaining, and they really enjoyed that he tells a great Canadian story. We would highly recommend Jon to other groups looking for a motivational and entertaining session (and definitely include the beer jug auction)! - National Director of Administration, Baker Tilly Canada

Jon delivered a truly inspirational message at our national leader conference earlier this year. His message was right on the mark...inspiring leaders to take responsibility for challenging goals in the face of an uncertain path and really demonstrating how to take ownership for developing your full potential and that of your team. Jon is skilled at communicating his message in a way that resonates across a diverse audience with just the right blend of humour and candour. - Vice-President Group Life & Disability Operations, Great-West Life
